Why do some people keep saying the misc was shut down without any sort of warning? If you'd been paying attention, you'd have realized that the writing was on the wall for this very clearly for like 2 years now. Anyone who thought it was coming back after the 3 week shut down was simply delusional.

Now some miscers are holding out hope that they miraculously change course and reverse an official forum shutdown that the company has wanted for like 6+ years now? Just move on already. If anything, the official misc shutdown goes to show you how stupid it is to put any sort of stock into retarded "communities" like the misc. One day you can be posting on a formum you've frequented for 10 - 20+ years, the next it can easily have the rug yanked and vanish like a fart in the wind. Easy come, easy go. I really don't get why some are pissing and moaning like there was no way they could have ever seen it coming when it was clearly in the works for a long time.

I don't know about the rest of you, but I'm kind of relieved that they finally deleted the misc. Mainly because the way things were around there made it such an incredible time suck. Indeed, any forum can easily be a big waste of time for a person, but it's not nearly as bad here as it was there. The misc was a different kind of animal with how easy it was to get sucked into wasting shit tons of time there. Then just like that, 10 - 20 years of posting for countless vanishes like a fart in the wind... just lmao

Yeah, it's legitimately depressing to think how many countless hours (over MANY years) that I wasted on that place. The reality of it really settled in this weekend, I had way more free time and didn't feel a compulsion to constantly see what Bull Shit is happening on the Misc (and the majority of it, in recent years, was usually arguing with unhinged idiots who had no interest in an honest discussion).

That hit me about a week into this last shut down. I was scrolling through some week old threads trying to be entertained by what was already very old news by then. And then it dawned on me, "wtf am I even doing with my life right now?" I've alwahs known miscing was a huge waste of time, but those frozen pages stuck for week really put things into focus on that. And like you said, over the last few years, it's been especially bad with the lack of people interested in honest discussion. Felt like 90% of what went on there was people finding excuses to e-fight each other about the dumbest shit imaginable.

I was getting paid most of the time I spent on it, so I never considered it too much of a waste

Edit: you know the advantage of the mega thread - you can read one thread and be caught up and not worry about missing anything anywhere else. That said - the movie/tv section seems solid
